The Oklahoma City Thunder suffered the worst loss in NBA history on Thursday night in Memphis, losing by 73 points as the Grizzlies set a new record for margin of victory in an unbelievable blowout.
The Thunder entered the game short-handed, losing Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to concussion protocol and Josh Giddey to illness, and were also playing the second night of a back-to-back. The box score from the loss is almost comical. Nine separate Grizzlies players scored in double digits, while Jeremiah Robinson-Earl had a plus/minus of -56 in just 24 minutes of action.
Here’s what fans had to say after the ugliest loss in Thunder history:
Memphis Grizzlies 152 Oklahoma City Thunder 79: Biggest margin of victory in NBA history.
